Allocating Scarce Resources: Modeling and Optimization by Gilmour, Samuel

“…Moving away from the specific setting of a scoring system, Chapter 3 shows that the ability for recipients to choose whether to accept or decline the offer of a resource can act as a hidden source of inequity in an allocation system. We formulate several game-theoretic models based on two groups of recipients, selective and non-selective, who display different propensities to accept or decline the offer of a resource. …”
